My baby is 4.5 months old, I’m back to work, and I just can’t deal. I’m anxious all the time, I cry for no reason, I have insomnia... I haven’t had thoughts of self harm or harming others, but I check most of the other boxes for PPD.

I reached out to a therapist I used to see, but she can’t fit me in for over a month. So I made an appointment with my GP.

Any ideas what my appointment will be like? She’s not a therapist, so I’m guessing she’ll ask my symptoms but not really get into detailed conversation? Will she immediately suggest medication?
